Chapter 315 Triple Hell, Tens of Millions of Humans
As Mu Cang walked leisurely, row after row of 'mountain wall'-like bookshelves with a height of more than a thousand meters passed by on his left and right.
While walking, he saw that each of these bookshelves was neatly filled with countless books.
Most of the books are very thick and heavy, looking like square and rectangular rocks.
Moreover, the rusty signs on the top of each bookshelf are engraved with different themes and types of books.
Some are the history of demons and hell, some are the mysteries of sorcery and curses, some are manuscripts about death and pain, and some are talismans about darkness and chaos.
These books all look very old and old, with the spines on the sides covered with dust and peeling leather.
Along the way, all the bookshelves Mu Cang saw were filled to the brim and seemed to contain endless knowledge.
This makes him feel like he has fallen into a sea of knowledge when he is here, making people feel relaxed and relaxed.
Continuing to walk along the hall, Mu Cang noticed that some of the books on the shelves could not even be called books. They were all large amounts of broken and scattered ancient manuscripts, as well as strange wrinkled scrolls.
These ‘books’ all contain dark auras that may be ancient, dangerous, or strange.
If ordinary people come into contact rashly, they are likely to... encounter misfortune.
"Huh?!"
After arriving at the reading room in Da Ru Square, Mu Cang was surprised to find that there were thousands of curse disciples sitting in front of long desks, reading thick books with great concentration.
"Do you really love studying so much?"
But when he really got closer, he discovered that each of these curse practitioners who seemed to be studying seriously was actually erupting with intense painful emotions all the time.
These dead souls "clad in" worn-out bodies, their red eyes without eyelids all reveal extreme fatigue and sleepiness, as well as almost substantial disgust.
Even so, they could not leave their desks, as if they were cursed and could only read and study without eating, drinking or sleeping.
Every time they finish reading a book, another book will automatically fly out from the bookshelf and hit the curser hard, so they have to continue reading.
Even if they read and see that their brains are necrotic, and they study and see that their internal organs are festering, they cannot stop.
At this point, Mu Cang understood that these curse disciples were also subjected to a kind of torture.
The torture of reading and studying.
It should be targeted at those humans who naturally do not like reading or learning.
After they fall into hell, they will be sent to the library.
From now on, I say goodbye to all eating, sleeping, and entertainment. Even my eyelids were cruelly cut off. I can only continue to read and study until the day when my body and soul are destroyed.
Mu Cang estimated that the oldest curse disciple among these people had been sitting on a stool reading for five thousand years, which is almost as long as the history of Chinese civilization.
However, the painful emotions that this old curse practitioner gave birth to were intermittent, not much in quantity and poor in quality, so he probably wouldn't live long.
"Haha, that's really interesting."
Mu Cang smiled happily, and his head suddenly exploded into hundreds or thousands of eyeballs connected with long blood vessels, tendons, and nerve bundles, and flew towards each bookshelf.
Whoosh whoosh——
With wisps of strong bloody smell, one eyeball quickly shot to the rows of bookshelves.
After that, these hundreds of eyeballs violently expanded countless times at the same time, turning into a group of giant eyeballs with thick blood vessels pulsing on the surface.
These intimidating-looking eyeballs glanced at the books on the bookshelf, and immediately a large blood-red mouth full of stacked sharp teeth pierced and split open in the center of the pupil.
"ha--"
Along with a long gasp, dozens of long, narrow, deformed, pale arms slowly stretched out from each big blood-red mouth.
As soon as these arms took shape and appeared, they shot towards the bookshelf in front like bullets coming out of the barrel. In an extremely greedy and savage manner, they quickly grabbed an ancient book as big as a giant rock, and then dragged it into the blood-red mouth behind it.
Click, click, click, click——
As soon as these books enter Dazui's mouth, they will be quickly crushed by the layers of rotating sharp tooth roulette wheels, turning into streams of 'thick' illusory information flowing into the depths of Dazui's throat, and then
The bloody 'pipes' connected through the back of the giant eye were swallowed up by Mu Cang.
In an instant, a large amount of knowledge and secrets that had been hidden in the depths of hell for countless thousands of years and were very different from the material world and even the world of Anzel and the country of Gendaya were brazenly seized by Mu Cang.
Ghost knowledge, prison techniques, torture art, bloody technology, weird magic, human magic, flesh and blood modification, soul modification, atlas of strange beasts, dream creation and control, space science, biochemical science, ancient and modern philosophy, prophecy and divination, summoning demons
Demons, spirit possession, barbaric ancient arts, sword martial arts, crossbow skills, religious theology, killing skills, dark prayers, void geography, evil curses, secret enchantment locks, soul-stirring secrets, ancient alchemy,
Evil words, magic spells, combat skills, drama and literature, sculpture and painting, engineering technology, mathematical sciences, history of hell...
Countless knowledge flickered in Mu Cang's heart, like billions of bright stars.
Click, click, click, click!!
Thousands of books on the rows of bookshelves were devoured in an instant.
Then these eyeballs will immediately move to other bookshelves.
Time passed by every second.
Mu Cang's understanding of the painful hell and even beyond the hell became more and more in-depth, and it was no longer as unfamiliar as before.
From this, he discovered that it was different from ordinary people's understanding that "hell is full of evil and chaos."
In fact, in the thinking concepts and self-perception of Leviathan and the demons of hell, they do not think that they are evil, nor do they think that they belong to a chaotic group.
On the contrary, this group of devils believe that the human world is the most disordered and chaotic place and is in great need of the baptism of order.
They believe that by bringing the order of hell to the human world, they can use 'order' to dissolve 'chaos' and make everything return to 'beautiful'.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because in the ideas of this group of devils, so-called morality and individual emotions are secondary, only pain and order are above all else.
All things should operate in an orderly manner according to their predetermined destiny, and all people have the right and must 'enjoy' the reality brought about by pain.
For example, the array of nails on the head of High Priest Spencer embodies this order, and these magic nails have a stronger ability to perceive pain, which will also bring stronger hell magic to the High Priest.
Of course, these are just the ideas of the demons in hell.
Leviathan and the monks who focus on the art of torture do not have enough motivation and thoughts to truly invade the human world.
It can even be said that they are happy to see human society remain in a state of 'chaos' in their eyes.
Because human beings' chaotic nature and never-ending desires are the source of all suffering.
This is also the ‘thing’ that the painful hell needs most.
However, if you look at it from a human perspective, then the hell of pain is a dark abyss of extreme evil.
But perhaps due to the complexity of human beings, facing such a terrifying hell, there are still a large number of people who are attracted by the darkness, become worshipers of the monks, and are willing to sacrifice their lives for hell.
For example, the craftsman who made hundreds of mourning boxes is this kind of person.
Of course, in addition to high-end talents like him, the hell worshipers hidden in the world act more as 'intermediaries', trying their best to let more humans come into contact with the Mourning Box and fall into hell.
For example, the fat man wearing sunglasses under Nail Head in the movie encountered a hell intermediary when he was a human. Because he was coaxed by the other party that he could satisfy all his desires, he opened the box of mourning and fell into hell, and then went from being a man who could only do violence to others.
A decadent otaku who drank too much was cruelly transformed into a 'shrewd and capable' monk from hell.
Of course, even more unlucky than him is Nailhead's other subordinate - the Tongue-Twister, the bloody, buck-toothed monk with no eyes who appears in the movie.
When he was a mortal, he was just a young boy living in Germany. He accidentally discovered the Mourning Box while playing with toys and accidentally opened it, so he fell into hell and was transformed into a monk.
In the movie, the bald female monk with her throat completely torn out who often travels with the Tongue-Twister is his lover.
Yes, love can occur between monks in hell.
Because for a long time, people have always relied on the pain after separation to discern the depth of love.
Therefore, love and pain are two sides of the same coin.
Since there are worshipers of hell in the world, naturally there are also resisters.
This group of people is mostly made up of insiders who have escaped the clutches of the monks.
These insiders include soldiers, scholars, scientists, and a few who have mastered extraordinary powers.
They formed an organization called the "Eradicators", determined to defeat Hell and even destroy Hell.
Of course, this goal is so difficult that no one has achieved it for countless thousands of years.
In addition to those related to ideas, Mu Cang also discovered that the history of hell... is also far older than Leviathan.
And Leviathan is not just this generation, but has many generations.
The age of this generation of Leviathan is approximately 550,000 years.
The previous generation, and the generations before it, can no longer be traced.
At the same time, there are records in some books that it seems that each generation of Leviathan will eventually be replaced by its own hell monk, and this monk will also become the new Leviathan.
It's like...a predetermined fate.
Mu Cang also believed that the ten million people that Nailhead Spencer said before were true.
The hell of pain is indeed connected to ten million earths in parallel time and space.
That's right, it's a parallel space-time with the solar system, the Milky Way, and billions of galaxies.
Rather than the 10 million secret small worlds similar to the earth that were artificially created in the fantasy realm as he had previously imagined.
These millions of earths in parallel time and space basically span all eras.
Ancient times, tribal times, iron ages, classical times, industrial times, cyber times, interstellar times... almost every era in the development of human civilization can be found in these millions of human worlds.
For example, the [Eradicator] organization mentioned earlier is distributed irregularly among millions of people.
However, this small tissue is just a scabies disease, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.
In other words, in Leviathan's eyes, he is a small character who doesn't need to be taken care of.
What he really cares about is the other two hells that are also connected to millions of parallel times and spaces.
Yes, there is not just one hell, but three hells.
They also exist somewhere in the endless void, with a scale and strength no less than that of the Painful Hell.
One of them is called [Midian Sinful Land], where a dark ethnic group called the Moon Tribe lives, and its individuals are also called [Night Walkers].
Unlike the monks who were transformed from humans in the Painful Hell, these night walkers from the Sinful Land are an alien species that have nothing to do with humans.
Their appearance is very different from humans. Some have disgusting tentacles on their bellies, some have multiple pairs of eyes on both sides of their cheeks, some have densely packed sharp horns on their heads, some have deformed and twisted heads like the moon, and some have heads that are deformed and twisted like the moon.
Even like a live hedgehog.
Not only do they look different, the Moon Tribe also masters a dark evil energy called the Nightmare Power, which is rumored to be the origin of human nightmares.
Most of these dark creatures have long lifespans, and a few can even live forever.
Like the Hell of Pain, the Sinful Land of Midian also has a group with extraordinary combat power similar to the High Priest, called the "Bound Ones".
The Bound Ones are few in number. Their whole bodies are composed of irregular twisted muscles. They have no brains and no internal organs. Their teeth are as sharp as swords. They are as powerful as gods. Their appearance is even uglier than that of the already deformed Night Walkers. Mortals can only look at them.
One glance can cause cognitive collapse and brain death.
In addition, unlike the painful hell that likes to capture mortals through mourning boxes, the Sinful Land of Midian is connected to the human world through the cemetery at night.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As long as it falls at night, the deserted cemetery is their paradise.
If someone appears in the cemetery at this time, he will unfortunately become the prey of the night crawlers. After being hunted and played with inhumanely, he will be cruelly eaten alive.
The hell of pain has the supreme god Leviathan, and the sinful land of Midian naturally also has gods, namely:
The Sheep of Rest—Baphoth the Demon.
This larger-than-human demon has the head of an antelope, the plump torso of a naked female human, the lower body of a deer, the feet of goat hooves, and the tail of a scorpion, with a burning poisonous hook at the top.
A ball of nightmare flame that can even burn the sun into ashes.
He is the creator of the Moon Tribe, so he is also known as the God of Night Walkers.
However, although they are both the main gods of hell.
However, this goat-headed demon named Baphomet has little connection with Leviathan, and has never had any conflicts. They are just slightly wary of each other.
Therefore, the Sinful Land of Midian under the control of the other party has never had any too intense friction or conflict with the monks of the Painful Hell.
However, the third hell, the bottomless pit, is very different from the hell of pain.
The Pit of Hell, also known as Abaddon's Cell or the Wrathful Hell, is home to a race of wrathful demons who are forever wallowing in raging rage.
This hell is different from the sinful land of Midian that exists somewhere. There is no solid land and almost everything is in a state of eternal fall.
Its 'geographical' location exists 'below' the main body of the Painful Hell Labyrinth.
There is only one exit from the endless falling prison, and that is the labyrinth 'above'.
The records in the books were not very clear, but Mu Cang understood it after thinking about it carefully.
To put it in easier-to-understand terms, the Hell of Pain and the Hell of Fury are a pair of ‘twin brothers’ that are far apart but linked to each other by natural time and space tunnels.
At the same time, Abaddon, the ruler of the Pit Hell known as the 'Angel of Destruction', has always been very interested in the human world and intends to invade it.
Therefore, he is always in a tense state of hostility with Leviathan, who has always maintained the concept of neutrality and does not want to disturb the world and wants to maintain the status quo.
If Abaddon wanted to organize an army to invade the human world, he would have to use the Painful Hell as a transit point to succeed.
Leviathan will definitely not agree unless he is completely defeated.
This is naturally impossible to do, after all, there is not much difference in the size of the two forces.
Therefore, Abaddon could only occasionally send a few scattered demons to sneak into the world to avoid the eyes of the monks, or use hell contracts to develop some organizations of demon messengers and demon worshipers.
In other words, the painful hell that brought countless blood and screams to millions of people actually protected mankind in disguise and maintained the stability and existence of human society.
Naturally, the many organizations that exist among tens of millions of people that resist hell and even attempt to destroy hell are totally unaware of this.
Of course, Leviathan would not explain so much to humans who were like ants in his eyes.
Even maintaining the overall stability of human society is not out of Leviathan's good intentions, but simply because he needs the existence of humans.
Humanity, which is the fundamental source of monks, needs to always exist, and human society, which is the fundamental source of suffering, needs to always exist.
